Pacific Islands Songs Performance

Today we performed our songs from the Pacific Islands at Assembly. We looked fabulous in our lavalavas. The whole school liked it because they were smiling at us on the stage.

This Friday it is Room 6's Assembly. We are joining them to perform the songs we have been learning together as part of our Living in the Pacific topic. Please come along at 11am and hear our beautiful singing.

A1 writers in Room 8







Here are some photos of us at writing time. We are very busy thinking about our stories. You can see we have drawn a quick picture plan and have started our sentences. We use a word or dictionary card to help us with our ideas.

What do good writers do?


On Thursday we talked about what good writers in Room 8 do, and we made a chart of all the things we could think of. Have a look at the photo of our chart.
